BYD’s Q3 2023 Financial Report

In the third quarter, BYD reported robust financial growth with impressive figures. Their revenue reached CNY 162.151 billion ($22.701 billion), a substantial increase of 38.49% from the previous year. Net profits also surged to CNY 10.413 billion ($1.458 billion), representing an 82.16% rise. These results highlight strong market support and operational efficiency, consistent with their earlier forecast of a significant net profit increase for the first three quarters of 2023.

Although this quarter’s profits didn’t surpass the CNY 10.954 billion ($1.534 billion) reported in the mid-year, it does establish a historic high for BYD. This achievement marks the first time they have exceeded the CNY 10 billion milestone within a single quarter, a feat they previously accomplished only on an annual basis in 2022.

BYD’s financial success can be primarily attributed to strong vehicle sales. In September, they introduced 287,454 new vehicles, with the majority being passenger cars at 286,903 units, reflecting a substantial 42.8% year-on-year increase.

Over the first nine months of the year, cumulative sales reached an impressive 2.07 million vehicles, demonstrating a remarkable 76.23% surge from the previous year. These figures underscore BYD’s growing prominence in the automotive sector and the effectiveness of its market capture strategy.

Additionally, BYD is expanding its brand presence through its subsidiary, Formula Leopard, by opening 70 new direct-operated stores, with 10 more planned. They aim to increase consumer touchpoints in 60+ major cities by the end of 2023, focusing on improving customer experiences and service quality.

BYD has also expanded its presence in 2023 across several countries, including Brazil, India, Indonesia, Mexico, and Thailand, with a focus on electric vehicles and batteries. They’ve formed partnerships with local companies and governments to produce electric buses and vehicles. However, there was a setback in India as their $1 billion electric vehicle factory proposal was rejected.
